Community Moving Crew
The Memphis, TN movers your neighbors already trust — house, apartment, storefront or a full office.
Here in Memphis and out across Shelby County, Community Moving Crew keeps it plain — a licensed, insured, owner-run crew that pads and belts every piece, signs the flat price before move-day, sorts out whatever COI your building wants on file, and never lets a surprise ride in on the tailgate.
- Full houses, second-floor walk-ups, storefronts and church halls
- Packing, month-to-month storage and any COI your building asks for
- A uniformed W-2 crew on trucks we own — never day labor

Your Memphis move week, planned on one page
Print one page and move week becomes a short row of tick-boxes: what to pack when, why the breakables stay padded and ride out last, and the nudge to throw salt on the ramp ahead of a frosty Memphis start. It is drawn up by a Shelby County crew that is loading houses, rentals and church halls somewhere in town most days of the week.

Three easy ways to get booked
Pick whichever fits your move; from there on, the Community Moving Crew carries the rest.
Whole-home moving
One flat price puts our uniformed crew to work padding, boxing, hauling and rebuilding every room; you point out where each piece belongs while we handle the tight Midtown driveways, the third-floor walk-ups and the skinny loft doors.

See my price nowSo, what are we hauling for you?
Point us at what needs to go; we size the crew to that load and hand you back a flat price — written down, and fully standing on us.
Five steps, first phone call to the last box in
Send over the basics
Give us both addresses, the floor count at each end and your target date; that is all it takes for one flat figure to land in your inbox with nothing tucked out of sight.
Pin down the day
Once you name the morning that works, we shape the whole day around it — pulling any building COI, holding the freight lift where one exists, and keeping your arrival window tight.
Packing and boxing
Want us to pack? The fragile pieces get wrapped first, then we go room by room, either just the breakables or the entire place, using our own pads, paper and cartons.
On the truck and rolling
The same uniformed crew that wrapped and loaded you at the Memphis curb carries the load to the new door and sets every piece down there, so nobody else ever touches your things en route.
Moved in and squared away
Each box lands in the room you marked, the beds go back together, and we cart off every last sheet of used packing paper before we pull away.
Whatever you are moving, it is the same crew
Apartments, bungalows, storefronts — anywhere across Memphis and the wider Shelby County area, that very same crew turns up to run the job.
Apartment & condo
Downtown lofts, Cordova second-floor units and Midtown walk-ups, handled by a crew that all but lives on tight stairwells, narrow doorways and building COI paperwork.
Learn moreLong-distance
A single truck and a single crew, tracked the whole way from pickup to drop-off — whether we run east on I-40 to Nashville or north on I-55 up to St. Louis.
Learn morePacking & boxing
Pack the whole house or only the fragile things; custom-built crates guard uprights, framed art and glass tabletops.
Learn moreStorage
Locked, climate-steady units rented month to month, there for the gap when your closing dates just refuse to line up.
Learn moreCommercial moves
We move offices, retail floors and church halls after hours and on weekends, so your doors stay open and the week hardly notices.
Learn moreJunk removal
Tired sofas, dead appliances and the pile left behind on moving day, run over to the county transfer station either before we load or once the truck has pulled away.
Learn moreMove day, walked through hour by hour
From the first doorway to the last box carried in, your Memphis crew holds to one calm, clock-driven pace the whole day through.
- 7:00a
Crew shows up
In early, the uniformed crew salts down an icy ramp, confirms any building COI is already filed, and lays the floor runners along the path we’ll walk.
- 7:45a
Wrap & pad
Nothing gets carried until it is protected: blankets and shrink-wrap go over the furniture, the upright is belted and padded, and the door frames and hardwood are covered.
- 9:30a
Loading begins
Piece by piece the crew works the load out, down the staircase and through the doorway, strapping each item onto the truck and marking it against the inventory before the next one moves.
- 11:30a
On the road to the new place
That same Memphis truck, with the same crew who loaded it, heads straight to your new door — the job is never handed off and no relay carrier ever takes the load partway.
- 1:30p
Carrying in
Each carton is set down in the room written on its side, and every sofa, dresser and headboard goes exactly where you point.
- 3:30p
Reassembly
Beds are put back together, the upright returns to its spot, we walk the whole place with you one last time, and every sheet of used paper leaves with us.
Find your local Community Moving Crew crew
Based in Memphis, TN — our crews cover the Mid-South, from Germantown and Collierville along the I-240 loop to Bartlett and Cordova and out toward Arlington and Millington. Tap your town in the menu and whichever crew sits nearest gets dispatched; no matter the job, you get back a single flat figure, set on paper.
In Terrance’s own words
When I put my name on Community Moving Crew back in 2012, I set one rule and have never once bent it: whatever figure goes in writing is the figure you pay once your last box is inside, with not a dollar dreamed up after the truck is loaded. Our trucks are bought and paid off, and no hand on my crew touches a family’s piano or heirloom before that mover has earned it, learning the trade at my side.
A one-bedroom loft above a South Main storefront or a four-bedroom out in Bartlett — the care lands the same either way: one Memphis crew worth trusting and a single flat rate in writing, curb to doorstep. Word gets passed neighbor to neighbor for that reason, from Midtown walk-ups to houses out past Shelby Farms.

The questions that come up most
The things Memphis renters and owners tend to want nailed down before they sign on.
Do your own movers run the whole job, or does it get passed along?
From the first box to the last, no leg of the move leaves our hands. Community Moving Crew is a licensed and insured shop based right here in Memphis, TN; every job rides on our own trucks with salaried, uniformed W-2 movers, and we keep Tennessee household-goods mover authority filed alongside live US DOT and MC authority. No load board ever sees your shipment, and no carrier you have not met ever touches it.
How much should a local Shelby County move cost?
Two movers with a truck run $124 an hour, and a third mover takes it to $174. The hand trucks, shrink film, moving pads, wardrobe boxes and any building COI paperwork are all part of that rate from the outset. With that flat number signed before we ever drop the ramp, the total cannot drift upward once the crew gets moving.
How much notice do you need to book a crew?
Around town, a week or two of notice is usually plenty to lock the date you are after. The end-of-month lease turnovers, the Saturdays and winter’s first icy weekends go soonest, so send yours over early; the moment you land on the board, that date is held.
What kinds of jobs will your crew take?
Everything from Downtown lofts, Midtown walk-ups and East Memphis condos to full houses out in Germantown and Collierville: homes, apartments, senior downsizing, offices, church halls, pianos, gun safes and antiques, plus long hauls east on I-40 and north on I-55.
